Reviews

[Dr Tejinder Singh Rawal · Rating 5 out of 5]

One of the most well-researched book on Sikhism by a Western scholar.

[Sam Gurvinder · Rating 2 out of 5]

ਇਹ ਕਿਤਾਬ ਬੇਸ਼ੱਕ ਸਿੱਖ ਇਤਿਹਾਸ ਦੀ ਹਰਮਨ ਪਿਆਰੀ ਕਿਤਾਬ ਪਰ ਇਸ ਵਿੱਚ ਤੱਥਾਂ ਤੇ ਮਿੱਥਾਂ ਦਾ ਰਲੇਵਾਂ ਹੈ ।

ਭਗਤੀ ਭਾਵਨਾ ਨਾਲ ਇਸਨੂੰ ਬਹੁਤ ਵਾਰੀ ਪੜ੍ਹਿਆ ਜਾ ਸਕਦਾ ਹੈ ਪਰ ਇਤਿਹਾਸ ਦੇ ਵਿਦਿਆਰਥੀ ਜਾਂ ਖੋਜੀ ਲਈ ਇਹ ਠੀਕ ਨਹੀਂ ਹੈ ।

[Ben Edsall · Rating 4 out of 5]

heavily researched, the author had extensive access to manuscripts of the Sikh sacred writings as well as support from Sikh scholars and leaders of the time. The work was quite a labor in effort to produce it to the satisfaction of the followers of the faith with great accuracy.
